Actor Adam Sandler, known for his comedic roles, recently showcased his devotion to basketball. Hours prior to officiating the wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on July 3, Sandler was observed playing a game of pickup basketball in New York City during a significant heatwave.
Following the high-profile ceremony, Sandler traveled to Nantucket, Massachusetts. Less than 48 hours after the wedding, the 59-year-old star contacted the Nantucket Police Department's non-emergency line. He was seeking information on where he could find a basketball court to play on.
A public safety dispatcher provided Sandler with directions to the Backus Lane court. There, he joined a game with local residents. One player noted Sandler's involvement and his enthusiasm for the sport.
Sandler's connection with Travis Kelce began on the set of the upcoming Netflix comedy 'Happy Gilmore 2,' where Kelce made a cameo appearance. Sandler has previously expressed admiration for Kelce, describing him as a "gentle, nice guy, and funny as hell."
